[Intro]
C Am C Am

[Verse 1]
C                          Am
I wonder who I need to be today
C                          Am
They don't need to change I'll relate
C                          Am
No matter what you have to say,
                   C
It'll be okay with me
                   Am
No need to overcomplicate

Am                 C
So what's on your mind?
Am                         Bm            C
Cause I'm not sure that I know what's on mine


A#m                G#
It'll be so much easier
           Cm
to follow you this time,
       F                    C  Am
I'll pretend that I don't mind

[Verse 2]
C                        Am
What do I gain from acquiescence
                         C
Constant social evanescence
                     Am
Armed with my imagination
                     C
I forgot about contention

                  Am                  C
Should I be more open, surrender my emotions?
                       Am               F
Why can't everyone be happy, lost in reverie?

            C
See what I mean?
Am                      G                       F
There's no need to get angry if you close your eyes
A#m               G#                Cm
It'll be so much easier to keep it all inside
       F                 C
I'll deny and avoid the fight

[Chorus]
Am  D                G
Cause I see where you're coming from
A#       G                      C
But it's clear that I can't see right or wrong
                      Am
I can't decide what side I'm on
D                      G
When I try to hear my voice it's gone

C                Em           A#                C      F
I'll ignore the raging war within my soul, to keep the peace

[Verse 3]
C                           Am
There's a peice of me that knows his name
C                           Am
Every once in a while show his face
C                           Am
And when he does he'll have something to say
                          C
and he'll say it like an anthem
                          Am
But for now I'll overcompensate to save face

[Chorus]
Am  D                G
Cause I see where you're coming from
A#        G                      C
But it's clear that I can't see right or wrong
                      Am
I can't decide what side I'm on
D                      G
When I try to hear my voice it's gone

C                 Em        A#
I'll ignore the raging war within my soul
           F          C
To keep the peace of mind

[Bridge]
Dm                          G
She's right in front of my eyes
           F
Or just a lie
C#                G#
It'll be so much easier
            Cm
To take a walk outside
         F                Am  D
Save it all for another time
 N.C.
Or never mention it again

C Am C Am

[Outro]
      Am     D    G
I'm calling off the surrender
A#  G      C
Awake, oh sleeper
      Am     D    G
To keep the peace I may need to speak up
C            Em               A#
Wage a war, trust the voice within my soul
N.C.
To keep the peace

C Am C Am
